Commit cad6967ac1 ("fork: introduce kernel_clone()") replaced "_do_fork()"
with "kernel_clone()". The ftrace selftests reference the fork function in
several of the tests. The rename will make the tests break, but if those
names are changed in the tests, they would then break on older kernels. The
same set of tests should pass older kernels if they have previously passed.
Obviously, a new test may not work on older kernels if the test was added
due to a bug or a new feature.
The setup of ftracetest will now create a $FUNCTION_FORK bash variable
that will contain "_do_fork" for older kernels and "kernel_clone" for newer
ones. It figures out the proper name by examining /proc/kallsyms.
Note, available_filter_functions could also be used, but because some tests
should be able to pass without function tracing enabled, it could not be
used.

The old _do_fork() helper is removed in favor of the new kernel_clone() helper.
The latter adheres to naming conventions for kernel internal syscall helpers.

Since ftracetest framework calls initialize_ftrace() right before
each test and after all tests, we don't need to init/cleanup
ftrace for each test case.
Just remove such unneeded init/cleanup code because it can
increase logfile size.

Fix kprobe string argument testcase to not probe notrace
function. Instead, it probes tracefs function which must
be available with ftrace.

Add a testcase for string type with kprobe event.
This tests good/bad syntax combinations and also
the traced data is correct in several way.
